I don't recall that he ever denied the accusations, only that he said she seduced him, but I don't have time to find good sources.
Pure baloney! We knew him well. He said no such thing. He most certainly denied the accusations, and never told any of us that she seduced him! We ate many meals with him, and talked with him at length. He was our confessor to the end and gave us Communion monthly.
BTW, I think the year of his ordination was 1957.
